Global Service Opportunities

One of our core values is Glocal Service and one of the ways that Jericho Ridge is living this out is by inviting you to invest in two key international ministries.

Guatemala 2018

Each year, JRCC sends a serving team to this Central American country to serve with our partners, Bethel Ministries.

JRCC is sending our 11th team to Guatemala March 17-25, 2018! The focus of the trip is to share the love of Jesus through actions, specifically to orphans, widows, the physically challenged and poor families. Our team of 13 individuals are planning on building 2 small homes and distributing food and clothing to families in need with the main focus of the trip being a large wheelchair distribution for those with mobility challenges.

If you are considering contributing to our Guatemala projects or supporting a team member, you can do so in the following ways:

Tanzania

In 2013, Under The Same Sun (UTSS) & Jericho Ridge hosted the first-ever summer camp for children with albinism in Tanzania, East Africa. It was deemed a strong success and so in the summer of 2016, we sent a group of volunteers from JRCC and other local churches to invest two weeks in July serving and learning alongside UTSS Tanzania staff, local university students and a partner church (BMCC) in Mwanza, Tanzania for a repeat of summer camp for approximately 170 children with albinism. Here's a video highlighting the work...

If you have any questions about the Tanzania trip or would like more information on how you can support or participate in the ongoing work of Under The Same Sun, please e-mail Brad Sumner.

Real people; real faith; real life...

At Jericho Ridge, you will discover a warm group of real people dedicated to following Jesus and making his presence known in our community. It’s pretty hard to describe ourselves succinctly and that’s probably a good thing because we’re not too fond of stereotypes. Perhaps the easiest way to put it is that we’re on a journey and we want to help each other get there. Why don't you join us!
